Three days later.
“Is the road really heading in this direction?”
Ryo who was walking beside Ciel glanced towards the young man with a serious expression. The intent was quite clear, the two of them followed Cherry out of Redstone City. They intended to visit Crimson Night headquarters. But Ryo felt that the two of them were even brought in an uncertain direction.
Three people dressed in hooded black robes passed through the desolate and empty plains in the northeast of Redstone City. To avoid people's suspicions, they sneak away and don't ride horses or other animals. For Ciel himself, such a thing was also a new experience.
Looking around that was only filled with a barren and dusty red land with extremely rare trees, Ciel shook his head lightly. Despite the new sensation, he still preferred the lush and cool Blackfield Region.
“Gin ..” Ryo whispered softly.
“Are you afraid of being ambushed, Xan?” Ciel said with an indifferent expression. “If it really was an ambush, I think it was a little interesting. Anyway ... I haven't worked out in a long time.”
“...”
Staring at Ciel who was so indifferent, Ryo only shook his head lightly.
After some time, the three people arrived at the hilly area of rocks. It was similar to a hill, but it was not green in color and there were only rocks and red earth everywhere.
They then continued walking deeper and deeper into the center of the hills. There, a large cave was guarded by several people in the same clothes as the people who broke into Ciel's room earlier.
Those people instantly pulled the weapons on their waists.
“Show your identity!” One of the guards shouted.
“This is me, Cherry ..” Cherry opens the veil and shows the face of a striking pink haired beauty.
“So that's Miss Cherry.” The guards glanced at each other. “So two people behind you ..”
“Yes, they are guests invited by sister.”
The guards glanced at each other.
“Then so the guests have to leave the weapon and the dimensional bag before entering the headquarters.”
“Heh ..” Ciel chuckles.
“What's funny!”
“Small robbers want to play with me.”
“Isn't it natural to leave a gun? Just do it.” Cherry said to Ciel.
“Then why with the dimension bag?”
“It ..”
“Also, if you don't want to be suspected. Try bringing in fewer people. The forty people who were besieging it was a bit excessive. Not to mention they're all still amateurs.”
“What do you mean by forty people?” Cherry looked confused.
Ryo who heard Ciel's warning instantly drew his sword.
The eyes of the guard immediately narrowed. The guy instantly shouted, “Kill both of them and catch the woman.”
After the speech was heard, many people emerged from behind the large stones all around. They numbered more than forty.
Looking at the people surrounding them, Cherry shouted, “What is the meaning of all this? My brother is-”
“Master Noct, your brother, and loyal people have now been cornered. We don't want to die with you and join forces under Mage Corny.”
“May you betray Mr Noct! He saved you all!”
People were about to storm in but were surprised to see Ciel was already out of place. Everyone instantly observed around, when gazing in the same direction, they were stunned.
The figure of Ciel was standing behind the cave guard who had just spoken!
When that person saw everyone looking towards him, he was about to look back. But before he turned his head, that person heard the wind rustling. He felt that his neck was cold and his gaze was moving strangely.
His head fell off. That guy just died.
“That's why I said you're amateurs. Why talk so much? Just kill it.”
Ciel's bored voice sounded. The three people who were near the guard earlier tried to retreat, but Ciel was so quick. With swords in both hands, the young man once again beheaded one person and stabbed one person right in the heart with another hand.
The last person was about to pull the sword at his waist. But just then, Ciel's legs swung violently kicking the person's hand, breaking the fingers in his hand and making the person scream in pain. Before it could react, a swinging sword split its body into two halves.
Ciel looked at Ryo who was preparing with an indifferent expression.
“Waiting me to finish them all?”
Hearing Ciel's taunts, Ryo also instantly moved. While Cherry was still dumbfounded, the sound of screams after shouts rang out in her ears. A few moments later, the neighborhood became quiet.
When he regained consciousness, Cherry saw dozens of cold corpses without heads, arms, or even being cut in half everywhere. The blood flowing made a terrifying scene at once disgusting.
There, the figure of Ciel and Ryo who looked indifferent. They did not look like they had killed someone, but killed a chicken. Although there were some scratches on Ryo's clothes, obviously .. that person was also unharmed.
“Why should you kill them all? You're bis-”
THE PLAQUE!
Ciel appeared in front of Cherry and slapped the woman hard until she fell on the ground. The pink-haired woman looked at Ciel with an expression of disbelief. Completely shocked and not knowing how to respond.
“You think war is a toy? They may kill, but because we are strong, should we forgive? Stupid.” Ciel said coldly. “Do not try to kill if afraid of being killed. Their families? Are they the only ones who have families? Me and my partner also have a family.”
Ciel turned away. He enters the cave followed by Ryo behind him.
Meanwhile, Cherry who was sitting on the ground with dozens of corpses around her stared blankly. He looked dazed and his heart felt so complicated.
In the goa.
Ciel and Ryo who had just entered observed the surroundings. Seeing that the place was spacious and not too restrictive on their movements, the two advanced with confident expressions.
Goa itself is an abandoned former mine. Clearly, the Crimson Night group was utilizing it as a shelter. Although it has quite a lot of risk, it is also not a bad choice.
“Are we going to enter just like that?” ask Ryo.
“It's wild, no need to be careful like being surrounded a castle or building like that.”
“If too many enemies?”
“Just freeze them to death.” Ciel said with an indifferent expression.
“Do you think ... is that person, Mage Corny, in this place?”
Ciel shrugged with an indifferent expression.
“Do not know. It would be best if he was there, so I didn't have to bother knocking on the door of Redstone Castle.”
Hearing Ciel say that he would break down the door of Restone Castle and do so with a relaxed expression made Ryo speechless. He was somewhat suspicious that the youngest prince of the Black Sun Empire was suffering from a mental disorder.
Aren't you going to commit a massacre? Why do you talk like you're going to the market, buying and slaughtering chickens?
